| - I came here because of the rave reviews of a fast casual cheap mediterranean place. Their menu seems to have changed a bit (I think the menu online is just lunch special prices? and is a bit pricier for dinner) and it's not a order up counter anymore with free tea and soup, but sit down service. The portions were rather large so it was still worth the money.
The BF and I started off with their hummus appetizer. Their bowl of hummus is the biggest serving I've ordered and decent, but needed a little bit more salt/seasoning. The pita served with is was alright, you need to eat it fast as cold it was a tad chewy.
Fesenjon (pomegranate chicken stew, I believe it was about $13) came piping hot I burned my tongue, with seasoned rice. The flavor was nice on this dish, it was a bit sweet and savory and the chicken was tender. They had other Persian stews that looked good as well, something you don't really see on many menus so worth trying and checking out if you like to try something new.
Koobideh (Lula/ Luleh, I believe about $12) Kebab here was really great here! Very juicy and deliciously spiced. I haven't had a good koobideh in a while so I tore into this.
Service was decent and we were checked on for drinks and if we needed more pita. The owner came to say hi as well.
Overall, pretty good Mediterranean ,Persian food. Would come back to try some of the other stews, but definitely back for the koobideh.
